The Portuguese colony of Dela- goa Bay is a narrow strip stretch- ing along the coast, which furnishes Portugal an opportunity to levy toll on commerce with the interior. The Portuguese maintain custom houses and trading ‘posts at Lorenzo Mar- quez and other ports, but have done nothing to develop the country it- self. On the others hand, the Brit- ish have done much towards the de- velopment of the back country since she compelled Portugal to relin- quish her claim to it by a threat to bombard Libson. About the same time, it is understood, overtures werz2 made tor the purchase of all Portugal’s East African possessions, but the best that could be obtained was an agreement that, should Por- tugal wish to sell, Great Britain should have the first option of pur- chase. It is notorious, however, that Lo- renzo Marquez has been used by the Boers as a landing place for muni- tions and supplies to be rushed into the Transvaal, the Portuguese get- ting their pickings in the way of port dues.
